It may seem like we are alone in our journey. We are all waging a personal invisible fight that we share with few people. Individual therapy is a way to help you make sense of your experience, and gain emotional support to push through difficult times. Beginning therapy is an opportunity to start offering yourself more compassion and grace. I’ve spent eight years supporting adults and families in crisis. I work with adults and adolescents struggling with transitions, grief, anxiety, depression, panic, phobias and addiction. My style is short-term, goal-oriented treatment that takes a hands-on, practical approach to illuminate problematic patterns of thinking or behaviors. My therapeutic practice uses a psychoanalytic lens with a solution-focused approach to access deeper self -knowledge while gaining concrete skills. In addition to my work as a clinician, I am a close family member of someone who struggled with a lifelong mental illness. I understand the cycles of recovery and the strain of social & economic factors finding and accessing the right treatment either for yourself or your loved ones. Let me be a guiding light for your journey of health starting now!
